TTFB (Time to First Byte) is a commonly used metric that measures the duration between a client's HTTP request and the receipt of the first byte of the server's response. A lower TTFB means a more responsive server and faster page load times. In the past few years in the web dev world, we’ve seen a significant push towards rendering our websites on the server. Doing so is better for SEO and performs better on low-powered devices, but one thing we had to sacrifice is TTFB.

This post is part of our debugging series, where we share tricky challenges and solutions while building Sentry. On March 4th, 2024, the most metal incident happened - INC-666 INC-666, in a nutshell, was where the issue alert rule post-processing step was flooded with more load than it could handle, and alerts that were supposed to have fired did not. This means that Sentry customers might not be receiving alerts if the query that would have triggered the alert is rate-limited.

Sentry started out as an Open Source side project in 2008. Today we are a Fair Source company with 100,000+ organizations on our SaaS and $100M+ ARR, but we have not forgotten our roots nor the hundreds of Open Source maintainers whose work we depend on for our success. Every year we share our success with the community, and 2024 is no different. This year, our budget is $750,000, up 50% from last year. We have 129 engineers right now, so that works out to $5,813 per developer on staff.

From sluggish API calls to elusive bugs, debugging your Next.js application doesn’t have to mean hours of staring at logs and deciphering dashboards. Join Dan Mindru, co-host of the Morning Maker show, as he shows you how to debug errors and performance issues using Sentry’s Tracing and Session Replay. We’ll start by diving into API performance optimization, where you’ll learn to identify and fix bottlenecks efficiently. Next, see a live demo of how Dan uses tracing and session replay to capture and replay user sessions to fix issues across their stack.

Open-source error tracking that helps developers monitor and fix crashes in real time. Iterate continuously. Boost efficiency. Improve user experience.

Sentry provides open source error tracking that gives you insight into every crash in your stack as it happens, with the details needed to prioritize, identify, reproduce, and fix each issue. Sentry supports all popular languages and platforms, and offers a perspective that enables you to see which errors are doing the most harm to your business and help you understand how issues affect your bottom line.

Find out about exceptions right away. Set up Sentry in minutes with just a few lines of code. Get notifications via email, SMS, or chat as part of an existing workflow when errors occur or resurface.

Quickly find and fix production errors. Triage, reproduce, and resolve errors with max efficiency and visibility. Exception handling with Sentry helps developers build better apps and iterate faster.

See the impact of each release. Integrate error tracking with your commit and deploy workflows. Aggregate events to see where bugs happen, how often, and who's affected before users even notice.

Error tracking built for community. Sentry started as and remains a 100% open-source project, now delivered as a hosted service. Development aligns to security, observability, and production at scale.

Users and logs provide clues. Sentry provides answers.
